  1. Road test the vehicle to determine the critical vibration points. Note the road speed, the engine rpm and the shift lever positions at which the vibration occurs.
  2. Stop the vehicle, place the transmission lever in NEUTRAL and run the engine through the critical speed ranges determined in Step  1.
  3. If no vibration is felt, balance the driveshaft. Refer to DRIVELINE VIBRATION .
